Probably my most anticipated game of the year. Halo has always been at its best when its doing wide open spaces and emergent vehicular warfare setpieces. This could easily end up being the best in the series, if they get the story pacing right.
Seemed like it was kinda beyond saving to me. You really need to get it right on the big first launch, or it's really hard to recreate that same hype. Especially several years later.
Is that the polite PR speak way of saying it's not happening for 360 games, or does he really mean it will probably be another year away before they do those?
I'm eagerly waiting the next batch of games to try it out. I considered just buying Far Cry 4 for the sake of it, but I'm just not interested enough in that game. If they do Far Cry 5, I'll get it. That game looked more interesting.
They mentioned in one of their interviews that this same trick might work on X360 games as well. Now that would be really impressive. I want Fable Anniversary, Witcher 2 and Red Dead in 60fps!
It's not different in terms of making it. They're just saying they don't know if it will run at 60fps like it will on the Series X. Which is obviously a problem, if the 2 consoles are trying to provide a similar experience.
It probably means it will be like the original BC program, where they do it game-by-game. So to start with we'll get like 10 popular games enhanced, then they'll do a few more each month.
Translated text seems like a fair expectation. Although probably quite annoying for the devs when they realize just how many languages they might similar demands about.

It's a specific character. You can either use the character creator where you can completely customize their appearance, or you can use the default character, which is based on a real life actor and looks a bit better graphically than the customized versions. Originally they only had a male version of that "default character", but they added a female version in Mass Effect 3. So they've basically gone back and added her into ME1 and ME2 as well.

I'm waiting for them to get enhancements for Series S before I get them.

This could be pretty damn good. Skyrim in space?

No way. Just get a Series S
Re: Pick One: Which Of These Bethesda Games Is Your Favourite?
That's not even close. Skyrim was one of the biggest games in history.
Re: These Five Bethesda Games Are Getting FPS Boosts On Xbox Series X
To be honest I thought Dishonored 1 already was. What about Dishonored 2?
Re: Poll: Do You Think The Elder Scrolls 6 Will Be Exclusive To Xbox?
Probably Xbox and PC.
Re: 'Handful' Of Bethesda Games To Receive FPS Boosts On Xbox Series X|S
Quite a few of those are already 60fps (or have the unofficial mod like Skyrim and Fallout 4)

Yes, believe it or not, I was being sarcastic. I know that doesn't work online so well.
Re: Random: Kid Calls 911 Because Mum Changed Their Xbox Password
I see no problems with this

@gollumb82
Red Dead Redemption hasn't been remastered dude. You're either playing the sequel/prequel RDR2, or just the original game in higher resolution.

Well you shouldn't be getting confused. You've been seeing my avatar for years on NLife!
Re: Talking Point: Is Xbox Being Too Quiet So Far This Year?
@Insightful @VenomousAlbino
Nope, I have no idea who the other person is. I've had this username at Nintendolife for about a decade.
Re: Talking Point: Is Xbox Being Too Quiet So Far This Year?
Just give me more of those 60fps enhancements and I'll be fine until Halo comes out.
Re: Deals: 300+ Games Included In This Week's Xbox Sales (March 2-9)
Any indication when we're getting the next 60fps enhancements? I was kinda hoping they'd be announced along with the weekly sale.
Re: Poll: How Excited Are You For Halo Infinite Right Now?
Probably my most anticipated game of the year. Halo has always been at its best when its doing wide open spaces and emergent vehicular warfare setpieces. This could easily end up being the best in the series, if they get the story pacing right.
Re: President Biden To Launch Investigation Into Xbox Series X Affected Semiconductor Shortage
Shouldn't have sent that supply chain to Asia. It's kinda important stuff nowadays.
(btw it's 'affect' not 'effect' in the 2nd paragraph)
Re: Mortal Shell Is Getting A Free Upgrade For Xbox Series X Next Week
Only 30fps on Series S? Well that's a deal breaker

I think they've actually already covered every single OG xbox and 360 game I want.
Re: Sorry Folks, BioWare Is Officially Ending Development On Anthem
Seemed like it was kinda beyond saving to me. You really need to get it right on the big first launch, or it's really hard to recreate that same hype. Especially several years later.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077's Biggest Patch Yet Has Been Delayed Until Late March
I bet the hack had nothing to do with it. They just want longer because they want to make sure this patch really fixes all of the performance issues.
Re: Bethesda Is Giving Someone The Chance To Design A Starfield Character
Well I guess this game can't be too far off then, if they're doing official branding stuff with it?
Re: Gears 5 Operation 6 Adds New Characters And More
I wish they'd just work on the next game tbh. Also, can you please make Gears 1 remaster work in 60fps?
Re: Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 Has Been Delayed, Getting A New Developer
Changing the entire development studio for the game? That's pretty much tantamount to saying it's a complete disaster.
Re: 10 Zelda Alternatives To Play On Xbox One, Xbox Series X
First Darksiders is more Zelda like. Also slightly better imo.
Re: Xbox Series X 'FPS Boosts' Will Focus On Xbox One Games For Now
Is that the polite PR speak way of saying it's not happening for 360 games, or does he really mean it will probably be another year away before they do those?
Re: Poll: How Are You Finding FPS Boost On Xbox Series X|S So Far?
I'm eagerly waiting the next batch of games to try it out. I considered just buying Far Cry 4 for the sake of it, but I'm just not interested enough in that game. If they do Far Cry 5, I'll get it. That game looked more interesting.
Re: 10 Games We'd Love To See Get An FPS Boost On Xbox Series X
@Snake_V5
Those games already run at 60fps!
Re: 10 Games We'd Love To See Get An FPS Boost On Xbox Series X
Good list, although I think you made a mistake on the 2nd entry. You changed the name between Generations and Unleashed.
Re: Talking Point: Which Games Need 'FPS Boosts' For Xbox Series X|S?
Red Dead 2, Gears 1 Ultimate Edition, Gears 4, Far Cry 5, FFXV, KH3, Spyro Trilogy.
Re: Microsoft Unveils The First Batch Of 'FPS Boost' Games For Xbox Series X|S

Awesome news! Terrible starting lineup though

No idea. That's not me. I've had this account name with NLife for a decade. Those other accounts are new.
Re: Xbox's 'Enhancement News' Might Be Dropping This Wednesday
Well they apparently have a wizard working on it. So things are looking hopeful.
Re: Metro Exodus Dev Predicts Xbox Series S 'Challenges' For Future Titles

Re: Microsoft Teases Xbox 'Enhancement News' Coming Soon
@Tharsman
It probably means it will be like the original BC program, where they do it game-by-game. So to start with we'll get like 10 popular games enhanced, then they'll do a few more each month.
Re: Deals: All 30+ Classic Xbox Games In This Week's Sale (Feb 9-16)

Re: Twitter Users Launch Campaign To Bring Arabic Language To Halo Infinite
Translated text seems like a fair expectation. Although probably quite annoying for the devs when they realize just how many languages they might similar demands about.
Re: Ori Director Apologises For 'Overly Aggressive' Rant Towards Fable, No Man's Sky And Cyberpunk 2077
Apologies like this are kinda pointless. He either meant it or he didn't.
I just think his team should try and make a game on the same kind of scope as Cyberpunk before he criticizes them. He might start to understand that big games of that type can't just neatly follow a prior plan in the same way an Ori game can. They're constantly evolving by their very nature, and it's basically impossible for them to have the final version be exactly the same as the initial idea.

Re: Mass Effect Legendary Edition Arrives On Xbox This May
@InterceptorAlpha
It's a specific character. You can either use the character creator where you can completely customize their appearance, or you can use the default character, which is based on a real life actor and looks a bit better graphically than the customized versions.
Originally they only had a male version of that "default character", but they added a female version in Mass Effect 3. So they've basically gone back and added her into ME1 and ME2 as well.
Re: BioWare Explains Why Mass Effect Legendary Edition Won't Receive An Xbox Series X Version
The fact that they're still using Unreal Engine 3 is a bit weird. Couldn't they have updated that?
Re: Pick One: Which Of These Xbox Tomb Raider Games Is Your Favourite?
I'm hoping the last 3 get 60fps patches sometime soon!
